Hi I'm trying to install debian gnu/linux 1.3.1 on a Packard Bell Statesman with 4MB of RAM.
When I insert the debian rescue disk, it never loads the kernel, but only writes: boot: Loading Boot failed: change disks and press any key with a delay of only 4-5 seconds between Loading and Boot failed. I have tried booting from a Slackware bootdisk (of unknown origin) with root=/dev/fd0 option. Now when inserting the debian root disk (low memory version, lmroot.bin), I can start the setup, but when I get to installation of the OS kernel, it fails with an error about "./install.sh" not available. I have tried the same bootdisk on a stationary PC, and it works perfectly. Any clues? ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Jeppe Buk, student of computer science Phone: +45 6557 2347 IMADA, Odense University Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Campusvej 55 WWW: http://www.imada.ou.dk/~buk/ DK-5230 Odense M, Denmark SMS (subject only): [EMAIL PROTECTED] ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Software is like sex; it's better when it's free.
